Police got a warrant to put a GPS on his car and secretly attached it while the vehicle was parked in Sveum's driveway. The device recorded his car's movements for five weeks before police retrieved it and downloaded the information. Wisconsin court upholds GPS tracking by police
The tracker is a receiver/recorder, unless the IF is leaking badly, the field strength meter is useless.
You're probably right about a honker not being able to fracture a bone in a man's arm but broken fingers, sprained wrists, massive bruises, broken noses and broken teeth hurt a hell of a lot!
The hold up is the average driver equates a massive vehicle with a more valuable and safer vehicle; whereas the average race car diver or bicyclist, associates least mass with the most value. Motorists resent any inconvenience that operators of eco-friendly vehicles cause.
No the point is there are 18 million people paying Social Security taxes with no prospect of ever collecting benefits; the government has little incentive of correcting this situation. We're going to the hard part and spend $6.7 billion on a virtual fence to stop illegal immigrants, but we're going to skip the easy and inexpensive part of data-mining existing data.
A while back Cringley blogged about a visit from the FBI, seems they wanted to know how he was so certain that there were 18 million people using SSN's used by multiple people. He explained to them he had a source that worked in a credit agency and the data was the result of simple and routine data-mining. It certainly strain our credulity that Equifax can do this routinely, but the SSN admin, FBI and NSA can't. Seems obvious to me that if the same SSN is reporting income and tax withholding from both New York and California on a regular basis that something hookey is going on.

When Comets Attack

That would be true if the comet was visible in the night sky, but if it was only visible in the day sky it wouldn't be so noticeable. if the weather was cloudy it might even be unobservable.
I really don't know what any of this means.... what does it mean to be subject to the Geneva Conventions - that we can't torture them if we catch them?
The traditional responses to spys and saboteurs varied, summary execution was very popular, especial after prolonged torture to extract information. This wasn't the pseudo-torture we're seeing in modern times, but real stuff like thumb-screws, racking, eye-googing ect. The Geneva Convention applies to uniformed combatants engaged in declaired hostilities between states.
No the problem is they can't, these are often FDA approved medical devices and applying a patch is considered re-manufacturing the device and the organization making the modification then assume the manufacturer's liabilities. The documentation requirements for Good Manufacturing Practice / Quality Systems are quite intense.
Validation Each changed device, accessory, labeling, packaging, and process should be thoroughly verified and/or validated by the appropriate department. Then the test results and all information related to the change should be reviewed by the change control board or other designated review group. This procedure is the same as needed for designing and introducing a new product or process into production and is detailed in section 820.30, Design Controls. Changes that only modify documents and do not change any design aspect of a device or process are performed according to 820.40 Document Controls. The change control procedure should state the details of the evaluation and review process or, as appropriate, refer to the company control procedures. The change control procedure should define the responsibilities of the various departments and members of the review board. DOCUMENT AND CHANGE CONTROL
I's love to go into Medical Devices like sleep-apnea/anti-snoring devices, but the FDA requirements means I'd have to spend twice as much time documenting and record keeping as I would actually making the things.
Recently, we decided to upgrade to a 20 Mbit line. Being the lone IT guy here, it fell on me to run cable from the ISP's box to our server room so I went out and bought a spool of Cat6. I mentioned the purchase and the plan to run the cable myself to my boss in head office and in an emailed response he stated that it's next to impossible to create quality cable (ie: cable that will pass a Time Domain Reflectometer test) by hand without expensive dies, special Ethernet jacks and special cable
The tolerances aren't that tight, he is overbuilding to begin with and his boss is being anally compulsive about quality they wouldn't even get close to needing. I did the same thing in my office and I'm glad now. The RS2322 signals left bad juju in the older Cat5E cable but it's easier to pull a new cable with an old cable than it was to do it from scratch. I expect by the time he actually needs Cat6 cable, it will be a couple generations obsolete and rotten as well.
Not positive but I assume the "solar cell" is to detect the light from the arc, might not be that difficult to substitude a much smaller photo-electric cell and a hearing aid batter for the much larger versions used in welding helmets. Welding helmets are personal proctective gear where failure can lead to significant injury so they are over-engineered for saftey.
People with the flu or even an aggressive cold often have nausea and loose stools due to swallowing excess mucus. Throwing up a little phlegm and a episode of diarrhea or two doesn't rule out influenza.
It's not the normal military you have to worry about, it's the ones that are convinced that they are fighting one God's side in the battle of Armageddon and even if both sides are wiped out, they will live forever in the Promised land.

you wog-brained shitcock.
An interesting expletive, is it British or Australian English?
WoooHoo, Microsoft just invented Ada!
Actually the Police had a warrant, the court said they didn't need the warrant.
The tracker is a receiver/recorder, unless the IF is leaking badly, the field strength meter is useless.
the GPS signals are transmitted at 1.1 -1.5GHz so I assume the signals will also bounce off the ground
Time to take off your tinfoil hat.
and wrap it arround the GPS unit, no satellite signal, no position data!

Hiroshima. A city gone in a flash. No real warning.
Hiroshima had nearly daily bombing warnings
no 10-15 Megatons is definitely a KER-FUCKIN-BOOM

Your right but more likely it's because CMIS, their first release,
isn't something like to get OSS geeks too excited.

You just have to learn to sleep with your beer-googles on.
An article on the turbulent teen years of a guy that's retired sort of fails the "news" part.
viruses hijack a host cell to make new viruses, if there are two viruses hijack the same cell everything can get mixed up and some new results.
